Today's show opens with the continued world wide reverberation of the bad US employment numbers from Friday. The markets have seen large sell-offs today, including a massive, first-time-ever loss on the NASDAQ of more the 1,000 points to open a trading day. This economy is owned by both Harris and Biden. They are married to it as they are to every other policy they have enacted. After some opening bell sound bites, I remind you about one of the brain-trusts Biden has as chair of his council of economic advisors, Jared Bernstein. This guy is as dumb as a box of rocks and two scoops of dirt. Another advisor, Gene Sperling has just quit the White House to work permanently on the Harris campaign. And, speaking of Harris, why hasn't she said anything yet about this failed economy? Since she has yet to address us, let's go back a year and remind you of her thoughts and wisdom about how to cure inflation. It is a wonderful example of her circuitous reasoning and word salad approach to answering a simple question. We also get thoughts on this crash from Stuart Varney and Charles Payne, both with Fox Business. We must not use the term “flip-flop” for Harris, because it allows her wiggle room enough to cause some doubt for people who might be on the fence. I illustrate this with a comment from Senator. Laphonza Butler (D-CA) when she appeared on CNN this Sunday with Dana Bash. Calling her a flip-flop allows others to paint that as “growth” and “maturation” on earlier positions. That's NOT who she is and we must not allow them to give her that opening. Then I move to yet more US Secret Service revelations. Seems the first time in the 2024 election cycle that Donald Trump was given counter-sniper teams was when he was in Butler, PA. And, yet another USSS whistleblower spoke with independent journalist Susan Crabtree about the “missing” J6 text messages from all agents' phones. Seems DHS and their agents in TSA have secretly put Tulsi Gabbard on their Quiet Skies list. It's their version of a domestic terrorist watch list. Elon Musk must have listened to Friday's show, because he made a point yesterday to comment on the stranded astronauts, saying the Boeing rocket, “Sucks!” He then wondered if he should rescue them on SpaceX? A young woman decided to tattoo her arm jet black in an effort to cover up all of her Harry Potter tattoos. She is really, really mad at JK Rowling. The question I ask is, doesn't this prove that decisions made in youth that result in permanent changes in your body, might become a regret when you grow a little older? I then treat you, in closing, with a Kamala Harris two-fer. First, we get a Deep Thoughts with VP Kamala Harris as she explains cloud computing. Then we give you her James Bond villain's laugh as she discusses being a female VP. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

On Monday, he told reporters that President Biden had "quadruple-checked" whether he had the legal grounds to extend the eviction moratorium unilaterally but said ultimately the president's hands were tied by a Supreme Court ruling that blocked the administration from extending its past moratorium beyond the end of July. Yesterday, the administration extended the renter protections anyway. And, the U.S. continues the hard task of global vaccine distribution.This episode: White House correspondent Scott Detrow, White House correspondent Tamara Keith, and congressional correspondent Kelsey Snell.Connect:Subscribe to the NPR Politics Podcast here.Email the show at nprpolitics@npr.orgJoin the NPR Politics Podcast Facebook Group.Listen to our playlist The NPR Politics Daily Workout.Subscribe to the NPR Politics Newsletter.Find and support your local public radio station.
A top White House aide defended President Joe Biden's decision not to extend the federal Covid-19 eviction moratorium on Monday, two days after nearly a yearlong nationwide halt on rental evictions expired. “Unfortunately, the Supreme Court declared on June 29 that the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] could not grant such an extension without clear and specific congressional authorization,” said economist Gene Sperling, who leads the White House effort to distribute Covid relief funds. The White House's argument that it lacks the legal authority to extend the eviction ban has not gone over well with the progressive wing of the Democratic party, which has been pressuring both Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., for weeks to extend the moratorium by any means necessary. “This court order came down on the White House a month ago, and the White House waited until the day before the House adjourned to release a statement asking Congress to extend the moratorium,” progressive Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, N.Y. said Sunday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Economics of Belonging:Book by Martin Sandbu Fueled by populism and the frustrations of the disenfranchised, the past few years have witnessed the widespread rejection of the economic and political order that Western countries built up after 1945. Political debates have turned into violent clashes between those who want to “take their country back” and those viewed as defending an elitist, broken, and unpatriotic social contract. There seems to be an increasing polarization of values. The Economics of Belonging argues that we should step back and take a fresh look at the root causes of our current challenges. In this original, engaging book, Martin Sandbu argues that economics remains at the heart of our widening inequality and it is only by focusing on the right policies that we can address it. He proposes a detailed, radical plan for creating a just economy where everyone can belong. Economic Dignity When Gene Sperling was in charge of coordinating the shaping and execution of the US government's economic policy in the Obama White House, he found himself surprised and dismayed when serious people in Washington worried out loud to him that the Obama focus on health care was a distraction because it was "not focused on the economy." How, he asked, was millions of Americans' fear that they were a single pink slip or a loved one's serious illness away from financial ruin somehow not considered an economic issue? To him, it was just one more example of a more profound truth he witnessed in his many years in our national economic debate: that when it comes to America's economic policy, there is too little focus on what the end goal should be. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/support
What is Economic Dignity, how do we measure economic success as a country, and what's it like working with Rob Lowe? Former National Economic Advisor Gene Sperling spoke about those topics and more with Cory.
I’m sure you all remember when Bill Clinton ran for President in 1992, James Carville’s precinct slogan, “it’s the economy stupid” was a fundamental foundation of the campaign. It was effective because it captured, in perhaps a more innocent time, the essence of the economy that personally impacted every single American. Today, almost 30 years and a political chasm latter it seems there are many economies. The Wall Street economy, the economy of the one-percent, the middle class, those struggling to make ends meet, and those totally left behind. The “economy” is no longer a catchword that is a big tent for all. Just look at the current situation as 35 million Americans are out of work, lines at food banks stretch for miles, and yet the stock markets are hitting new highs. Today, the current pandemic and its resultant economic crises are an accelerant to further these divisions. So as we look out amidst massive unemployment and an even greater economic divide and we wonder if there might be a common goal that the economy should represent and strive for? Former Clinton and Obama economic advisor Gene Sperling things so and he outlines it in Economic Dignity My conversation with Gene Sperling:
American unemployment fell in May, but is this really a sign of a "rocket-ship" recovery?

Gene Sperling served as Chief Economic Advisor to Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, and he joins host Krys Boyd to talk about reimagining contemporary capitalism. His new book is called “Economic Dignity.”

Gene Sperling is the former Director of the National Economic Council under Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. He joins David to share how his parents’ fight for racial and economic justice shaped his values, what his time in two presidential administrations taught him about the power of economic policy, how the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the country to rethink everything from workers’ rights to budget deficits, and more. His new book, Economic Dignity, draws on decades of economic policy experience to offer market reforms that would secure greater economic dignity for American workers.
Every night, Americans across the country clap and make noise for the essential workers keeping our country afloat. But when the clapping ends, the deadly work continues, sometimes under deadly conditions. The pandemic has exacerbated the absence of essential workplace protections for these workers—in meat processing plants, supermarkets, and packing warehouses. On this episode of the podcast, two Mother Jones reporters talk to two top economists who are trying to change the way labor works in the United States: former Labor Secretary Robert Reich and President Obama's former top economic adviser, Gene Sperling. From the inaction of the labor department, to the role of unions, to economic dignity for low-wage workers, these two insiders have a lot to say about the state of labor in the United States. The pandemic has exposed the lack of worker protections in times of prosperity, much less in times of crisis. The question is: how quickly can change really come?
Former Clinton and Obama economic advisor Gene Sperling talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about his latest book, Economic Dignity, and how the COVID-19 pandemic is changing attitudes toward essential labor and compensation. He predicts that unemployment could top 10 percent for several years to come, and evaluates the federal government's response to the crisis so far, explaining what he would tell President Trump if he were still in the White House today. Sperling also talks about the need for laws to protect gig workers, why the Obama administration didn't stop Big Tech from growing in size and power when it had the chance, and the need for antitrust action against companies like Facebook.

Almost 40 million Americans have lost their jobs in the past 8 weeks. That is a quarter of the workforce. We have never faced a crisis like this one.

Gene Sperling was the top White House economic advisor for both President Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama. He has written a book that addresses the core question that must precede the rebuilding: What is our goal? How will we measure success? His answer is that we must place human dignity at the center of our policy decisions. His book is called "On Economic Dignity" and he discusses it with Ed Luce of the Financial Times and host David Rothkopf.

The 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th ammendment, Gene Sperling's new book on the economy, and a number of other topics are covered in this week's In the Moment Arts & Lifestyle Podcast.
In his latest book, “Economic Dignity,” former White House advisor Gene Sperling lays out the case for the dignity of work. Only when all workers are valued, he argues, will we do better as a society. Also, can the U.S. Postal Service survive? Some local post offices may be closing soon — what’s the impact on November’s election?

Gene Sperling, economic advisor to Presidents Clinton and Obama, discusses how COVID-19 shows that his theory of 'Economic Dignity' - judging an economy by its ability to maximize the happiness and fulfillment of all workers - is needed now.
More than 20 million jobs were lost in April and it keeps getting worse. Millions of Americans continue to file for new unemployment benefits every week. Is there and end in sight? And what does a plan look like to keep Americans afloat through the rest of the crisis and ensure that business is there to employ them again? Former top Obama economic adviser Gene Sperling joins the panel to talk about economic dignity in a pandemic and after. Will there be significant policy changes to match this recognition of the importance of essential workers, so many of whom are low paid? Even Mitt Romney has a bill for federally funded hazard pay for essential workers in this crisis. But will America’s relationship to low-paid essential workers change permanently, or will our economy go back to its precarious normal? Plus: the Justice Department wants to drop the charge against Michael Flynn for lying to federal agents, a charge he already pleaded guilty to. Ken White joins the panel to talk about the justification for that, and what it means for other criminal defendants.

, senior fellow and director of the Center for Universal Education at Brookings, discusses her new book (co-authored with Gene Sperling and Christina Kwauk) "" (Brookings Institution Press, 2015). “Girls’ education really is quite unique in terms of interventions you can do," she says. "Not because it’s a silver bullet; there are no such things as silver bullets. But, certainly in developing country contexts, it has so many high returns across such a wide variety of areas important for society.” In this podcast, Winthrop walks us through the evolution of girls’ education and how “Twenty-five years ago, girls’ education was an issue in every single country in the world.” She reminds us that there’s a reason to be optimistic: “There are a lot of huge gains in girls’ education. There is a lot to celebrate. Over the last twenty years, the number of girls who have been out of school have been cut in half.” Also in this podcast: Listen to , senior fellow in the Metropolitan Policy program and author of the book “,” answer a question from one of our listeners on how we define post-baby boom generations.
